Yes Happy Birthday RDB, who with the sad passing of Tulip, is now the sole most famous living legend of the club.

    No doubt.  The legend will live as long as the game itself.  Happy 82nd RDB!

    The last time I saw him on Fitzroy street we had a bit of a scuffle.

     I hope he learnt his lesson.

    Stay off my turf Ron.

    This is my last warning.

    I don't fight Octagenerians fair.

    Ron was a Septagenerian at the time and he would have whupped you within an inch of your life had you not found refuge with your mates at the Gat.

    Anyway to the rest of us, he remains an heroic Demon, not just as a player and coach but a great human. 

    Happy birthday RDB!

    I remember when I was given a pair of plastic black Ron Barassi boots 

    I remember where I was when I heard he left for Carlton

    Time to forgive the great man for both those travesties I think

    Happy Birthday Ron

    What an inspirational and brilliant footballer. What a finals player. Come on present players, get another premiership for our champion. Maybe more.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
